TheMycobacterium tuberculosisComplex-Restricted Genecfp32Encodes an Expressed Protein That Is Detectable inTuberculosis Patients and Is Positively Correlated with PulmonaryInterleukin-10

Abstract excerpt

Human tuberculosis (TB) is caused by the bacillus Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a subspecies of the M. tuberculosis complex (MTC) of mycobacteria. Postgenomic dissection of the M. tuberculosis proteome is ongoing and critical to furthering our understanding of factors mediating M. tuberculosis pathobiology. Towards this end, a 32-kDa putative glyoxalase in the culture filtrate (CF) of growing M. tuberculosis...
